Dear One Direction,
Congratulations for winning your first BRIT with your VERY FIRST SINGLE! I am so so so proud of you. I will always love and support you through everything you do; words can’t describe what you’ve done to me, both good and bad. You’ve affected me in so many ways. You’ve made the crying, hyperventilating, up-until-4-AM-nights, frustration, and fangirling all worth it. You boys have put me on a rollercoaster of emotions, where I'll be silently crying while listening to "Moments" and suddenly laughing hysterically at my computer screen at an old interview. You don’t know how much you mean to me and I just want to say thank you for everything. Being on the other side of the Atlantic has made it hard; I’m pretty sure my sleeping schedule will be permanently messed up because I’ve gone to sleep at 5 AM way too many times simply because you boys are awake in the UK! I feel as if I won the BRIT award alongside you and I was cheering you on on the other side of the computer screen when you lifted the statue. I am beyond proud of you boys for all the hard work that has gone in recording the album, promoting it, and spending time to tweet, meet, and talk to fans. We appreciate everything you do for us whether we show it or not. Thank you again for everything.

Much love,
a fan :)
